Quote by Liz Faublas

“Women have a high threshold for pain and tough appetites. We bite our tongues, survive heartache, function on one last nerve, pull punches, eat crap, swallow our pride, beat ourselves up, shoulder responsibility while performing the back-breaking task of staying a step ahead while standing tall against everything so we don't fall for anything!”

“Have you ever noticed that whenever you point a finger at someone to blame, three of your fingers point back at you? This world is a mirror; everything on the outside is a reflection of the consciousness we choose to hold on the inside. The mirror smiles back at you only when you smile at it. To change something on the outside, the first change must begin on the inside.”

“The timidity in mainstream feminism to admit that women’s choices—not just our problems—are, in the end, political has led to a vision of “women’s empowerment” that often feels brutally disempowering in the end. The root of this trouble is the fact that mainstream feminism has had to conform to patriarchy and capitalism to become mainstream in the first place. Old requirements, instead of being overthrown, are rebranded. Beauty work is labeled “self-care” to make it sound progressive.”
